THE CREW
Our Story Starts In Paradise
…And How We Can Get You There
Paradise Jets was born from one man’s thirst for competition and his desire to fly. From a young age, Jamie Thomas dreamed of owning his own business that would help people share his love of flying.
After years of planning, learning and evolving, Paradise Jets is that reality—a family-owned organization operated by Jamie, his wife Cynthia and an unrivaled roster of aviation professionals.
